The carmaker added that its iconic Golf model would be "led into the electric future" at its main Wolfsburg plant.
The Trinity electric car, which is to be based on the new SSP platform, was supposed to be launched in 2026.
Volkswagen had initially planned to build a new factory for the model, but due to delays in developing the brand, the German carmaker was also considering converting its Wolfsburg factory.
